Supplies to Make a plaster mini planters

Once you have mixed together the colored plaster you’d like to use for this Plaster of Paris craft, you can get started with the mini planters.

step 1

Stir in water to the bowl while stirring until you reach a consistency similar to pancake batter (a little thicker than that is still fine, though).

STEP 2

Pour the mixture into a silicone mold or scoop it in with a spoon.

STEP 3

Gently tap the filled molds on a flat surface to get out any air bubbles, and then set aside until hardened (1-2 hours should be fine).

Once they are completely hard to the touch, remove the mini planters from the mold one at a time.

STEP 4

Use a fine sandpaper to sand down the bottom of each planet if there is any unevenness. Then let the planters finish air drying for a full 24 hours, if possible.
